Sometimes, you just need to know when to say NO...

Why did they stop the video while they were drowning? You know they were sucking water. How fast did they get that turned back over? Seems that there's more to the story than the video tells IMHO.

Dumb. This is what sets a bad example. Yes we've all pushed it, but to just "hop on it" isn't how you get it done. Listen to the guy filming, "easy.. easy" yeah, yell it louder so he can hear ya! Anyone who's watched hill climbs knows that's exactly the thing to watch out for, hooking up at the top.

Yeah I'm being harsh, but as someone already said, if you're by yourself, fine, but don't involve someone else in your testosterone laden adventure. Watch that poor girls body language, she was trying to climb out of that thing and was scared to death.

O.k. soap box is put away. I guess I'm just a little sensitive after losing a few of our own recently to an absence of caution.

He actually does own it! He just drove 8 hrs from Kansas City to MN to buy it from me last week! It WAS in showroom condition.....and just built. Im proud of him! .... no point in owning it if your not gonna use it I guess...lol (could have used some helmets 4 sure)

Your right there was more to the story. I was the one filming. The rest of the story is.............................i stopped recording so i could jump down and help get my friends flipped back over. Next time ill keep recording and not try to help. As its been said a s,wildcat and xp had made this climb before him.

Yeah, after I wrote that I thought that's probably what you did. Like I said, no disrespect to anyone, but we've lost good friends because we let our guard down and things go way wrong. Just a little sensitive seeing folks in bad situations.


I'm really glad everyone is alright.

Proud of what?

[JoeyD23]

Jake is proud that the guy bought it and wasn't afraid to go out and mash on it. So many people (myself included) at times buy a bad ass toy and put it on a shelf never to use it for what it was made for. While Polaris doesn't build RZR's to be flipped over sometimes when riding crazy like we all do it happens. Jake built that thing to take a rollover and the guy who bought it learned that it works! hahah

Simmer down here guys. Sure it was stupid they didn't have helmets on and yeah, a little more experience or common sense probably would have got him up and over the obstacle without the wreck but the reality is, this was fun to watch and we are all stoked that the machine was built to withstand such an impact. Stupid? Maybe... But fun as hell to watch. Next time, put on a helmet and enjoy the ride with a little more piece of mind!

HAMMER DOWN!
